1264532 2012-03-12 03:55:00 Do you guys know where I could buy computer/electronic parts in Auckland?
I am looking to get a micro usb socket to replace my damaged one.

I also need to grab hold of some torx screwdrivers T6 - 8. Where will be the best place?

Probably Jaycar, they have Torx but I'd look them up on line first. I don't think they do micro USB sockets though, IIRC they only have the full size A & B PC board mount types. Maybe a computer repair shop might have them (a proper repair shop that doesn't just change things and is able to remove/replace small components. They have 4 shops in Auckland.

1264536 2012-03-12 21:52:00 Somehow I dont think you'll find an exact match/exact fit. Better bet maybe to buy a used WD HD & take the part off that

Also try Tradetech, Farnel, RS Components
